I assumed you meant too stiff.

"wobble" = get them/the install checked by a pro.

yeah I will get them checked. I am thinking Tim Slako may be the best guy.
I can handle the harsh ride but it is the boob wobble after hitting a bump that has got me miffed.
not having a bat mate at all...just coilovers are very simple to install..setting them up may be something else..
harshness isn't a problem...boob wobble is....

just get your old struts remove the springs and weld the strut so it is locked, would feel the same as coilovers
